AWS Lambda is a compute service that runs your code in response to triggers and automatically manages the compute resources for you. Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale.

This webinar will familiarize you with the basics of AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway and demonstrate how to build mobile backends using these services. You will learn how to set up API endpoints that trigger AWS Lambda functions to handle mobile API requests. You will also learn how to use Lambda to read and write to DynamoDB.
Learning Objectives:
Understand key AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway features
Learn how to set up a mobile backend using Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda
Explore sample use cases, best practices and tips on using AWS Lambda with Amazon API Gateway

Continuous ScalingNo Servers to Manage
AWS Lambda automatically scales
your application by running code in
response to each trigger. Your code
runs in parallel and processes each
trigger individually, scaling precisely
with the size of the workload.
Subsecond Metering
With AWS Lambda, you are charged
for every 100ms your code executes
and the number of times your code is
triggered. You don't pay anything
when your code isn't running.
AWS Lambda automatically runs your
code without requiring you to
provision or manage servers. Just
write the code and upload it to
Lambda.

Three Next Steps
1. Create and test your first API. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console,
you can create an API that acts as a “front door” for applications to access data,
business logic, or functionality from your back-end services.
2. Create and test your first Lambda function. With AWS Lambda, there are no new
languages, tools, or frameworks to learn. You can use any third party library, even
native ones.
3. Select Lambda as your backend for your API … Use the sample code and setup
instructions to quickly create your first mobile backend using Amazon API Gateway
and AWS Lambda.
